Re: Recently bought a Nintendo Gamecube. Any game reccomendations?

Super Smash Bros Melee, is alot of fun to play with friends. Other then that I know that Resident Evil 4 is a really good game, replayed it like 5 times or more.

Hope it helps.

I'm not so fond of Super Smash Bros although you're right, it's a lot of fun to play with friends. I may pick up Resident Evil 4, everything I heard about that game makes it out to look super kickass....the gamecube version is supposed to be exceptionally fun to play, the controls are best on GC I've heard. In that game do you have the option to play as a girl or are you playing as Leo the whole time?

EDIT: For RE4 get the PC version and download a couple of mods to fix the problems it has. And no you can't play as a girl. Best thing to do is shove her in a dumpster till you clear the level and then go back and get her.

When you complete the game you unlock 'Assignement Ada' and also 'The mercenaries'.
Assignement Ada is played with a girl who is often seen in Leon's story. You actually play the story through her eyes this time. Really nice touch to it really. Also in 'The mercenaries' You can play with different characters in a minigame of all out zombie killing. What else is there hmm, well you can unlock extra weapons after playthroughs and costumes for Leon or Ashley who you protect in the game.

Re: Recently bought a Nintendo Gamecube. Any game reccomendations?

I only bought a Gamecube for Super Smash Bros. Melee, and F-Zero GX. If you like racing games, get GX, it's probably one of the best racing games of many generations.

People say Pikmin is good too, but not the sort of game I like to play. Might want to look it up or borrow it if possible first, but those two are the only ones I can recommend since they're the only GC games I played XD.

Re: Recently bought a Nintendo Gamecube. Any game reccomendations?

I'm currently waiting for a controller in the mail because the one the guy at the swap meet gave me is trash. Doesn't work. It should arrive tomorrow, I'm super excited. I think the gameplay for Die Hard: Vendetta looks awesome, anyone else scope that?

And thanks @GameGeeks for telling me the name of that FF. What do you like more, Tales of Symphonia, FFCC or Baten Kaidos?

Re: Recently bought a Nintendo Gamecube. Any game reccomendations?

Tales of Symphonia without question. Though Kaitos does have the more unique battle mechanic. As for Crystal you will find yourself running around and repeating things over and over in that game. Not in game over/reload. Just you have can only complete three dungeons before you have to go back to your hometown and start over again and finishing the game can be tricky since it doesn't really tell you what you're supposed to do.

Yeah I remember renting Crystal when I was a kid and I couldn't really get into it because there weren't any specific directions, something like that. Im watching gameplay footie of TOS and it looks awesome! Might have to get that for my birthday in February

Resident Evil 4 that is? Yeah I want to get that for my birthday
And about Pikmin, I played the 1st one but I couldn't get in to it because of the time limit. But Pikmin 2 is supposed to kick major donkey...there aren't any time limits I think I want Pikmin 2, Starfox Adventures and Resident Evil 4 for my birthday. I can probably get all of them for under $50 bucks.

Re: Recently bought a Nintendo Gamecube. Any game reccomendations?

Well, pikmin may or may not suck, it's really subjective. I hate games that are purely one person playing. Other than major RPGs (FF3/6, 7, 8, 9) and GT4, if the game isn't played with friends (in person or online), I don't play it. This has been going on for me for 15 years, so I have a pretty limited scope of gaming.

Re: Recently bought a Nintendo Gamecube. Any game reccomendations?

Actually I watched the gameplay for Tales of Symphonia and it didn't really click with me...the combat system reminds me of Wizards 101 lol
But thanks for all the recommendations. Metroid Prime is choice but its a little difficult. I think Turok: Evolution is my favorite followed by Gun and then Die Hard. The combat system in die hard kicks donkey. And of course Ocarina of Time kicks major donkey balls.

Yeah. I recommend you upgrade to a Wii or a WiiU.
